    Sleeping babysitters


    This photo was secretly taken while our babysitter SLEPT. After we raised our babysitters arm we dropped it and watched it fall right back to the sofa. All of this indicates that she was sleeping on the job!

    Please take our poll on the side.

    Festival of the Arts

    We went to the Festival of the Arts tonight. It was great. We ate lots of good food and saw some great art. Dad was working a bit on the Wimgo booth while Mom, Clark and Charlotte all hung around. We almost bought a great piece of art for the house. It was a small piece of wood that had been painted. It had a painting of a small girl swinging on a tire swing. It was very cute. I imagine we will go back and buy it as the week goes on.

    On another note, Jason is coming to town this weekend. He is going to attend the Norman Music Festival with me. Also, I bought a t-shirt cannon for work and it was delivered today. I went outside to test it. It was awesome. I never new shooting cotton out of a big gun was so fun!!

    First salad ever

    This is a photo of the first salad I ever ordered at a restaurant. It was at Nonna's last Friday with Marilu Henner and Gunnar Peterson. To be honest, I didn't like it much.

    Last Friday




    I spent all day last Friday with Marilu Henner (actress on Taxi and Celebrity Apprentice and author) and Gunnar Peterson (celebrity personal trainer to the stars). They were in town for a book-signing at Barnes & Noble by Quail Springs Mall. I had a blast. They were so nice and down to earth. However, they didn't really like each other too much. They both loved Oklahoma City. In fact, Gunnar is coming back to visit in mid-June. They both talked about how tired they are of Los Angeles and the lifestyle of being a celebrity in Los Angeles.

    One a funny note, I ordered my first ever Salad while at lunch with them on Friday. We went to Nonna's in Bricktown. I leaned over to ask Gunnar what I should order. Gunnar laughed at me when I said, "Dude, flip the menu, you're looking at the salad page." After he flipped it I said, "I've never eaten a salad in my life." I never thought he would stop laughing.

    I took them to several interviews while they were in town. Once we all learned of Marilu's strict diet, Gunnar was all over her for it. He was constantly cracking jokes about eating steak and other "chemicals." She is a no dairy lady. She talked a lot about the hazards on dairy on our bodies. I thought she was a lovely lady but she was annoying Gunnar and Caralyn, his business partner, in the worst way. Because of that, Gunnar, Caralyn and myself would sneak off to eat frozen yogurt. We were all laughing because we didn't want Marilu to see us.

    I took them to the OKC Memorial and we listened to Jamie Smith doing her sound check for a performance on the next day. All of them, Gunnar, Caralyn and Marilu cried. Each one of them was taken over by their emotions at the memorial. Jamie came over and gave them copies of her brand new CD. You would have thought they just won an Emmy. Gunnar kept talking about how cool that was. He was so excited to have her new CD. Marilu mentioned it again several times during the day as well.

    You can watch a Gunnar video that was recorded at The Oklahoman below. Gunnar references my "No Salad Eating Diet of Champions" during his video. I was just behind the camera and we laughed about it all day. I have posted the photos for you to enjoy also.

    Wild Weekend

    Man, what a weekend. We tried to do fun stuff with Clark all weekend long. We were going to take him to the OU Red & White game. We went down to Norman on Saturday only to realize that the game was last weekend. Nice work on our part. Then today we went to the Olympic Trials in Bricktown only to arrive one and a half hours after the last race. Again, nice work. That one wasn't our fault since the races started two hours earlier than promised. So, we told Clark that we would go play glow-in-the-dark minature golf with him at Lunar Golf. Wow, how sad were we when we realized that the store had closed and moved out of Quail Springs Mall over four months ago. After consoling him we told him we'd go to Chick-Fil-A for lunch while at the mall. Once we arrived in the food court we remembered that they aren't open on Sundays. Poor kid. All the promises in the world and no follow through. He managed to go on like a trooper.
